I got 2 rock chips from following a small car yesterday(a bunch of car lenghts behind too), I only really threw alot of crap when I was playing in some mud and first went out on the road at higher speeds(first 15 seconds or so as the mud came off).
most of the rocks that would come out of your tires would likely not just cause rock chips, they would make holes, but they would likely not even stay in the tread that well so it would not be likely to do so.

Any way you want to slice it, the perception of the public is lifted jeeps with big tires throw rocks. i feel the same way as the guy that wrote the letter. i don't care that other cars throw rocks, but when i see a lifted jeep with no mudflaps it bothers me. When i am riding in the Spring, i develop a hate for all lifted big tire jeeps that have no flaps.

Hmm, that note seemed rather strongly worded for a random parking lot note. I'll bet it was somebody you know pulling your chain.

I agree he was a jerk for leaving a note like that.

However, why not get some mud flaps so that your jeep is legal. We spend enough on the other parts for our jeeps but most of us are to cheep to get a set of mud flaps. Yes, cars and mini vans chuck rocks and break windshields that does not make it ok for us to do it. I don’t get the logic that you have to wait to get a ticket or get told by a police officer (the law) that you have done something wrong before you fix it. Obviously you have fabrication skills. I am sure you can come up with a way that you can make them removable for the trail.

None of us will ever make our lifted jeeps conform 100% to the laws but part of it is in the perception that we have made an effort.  Yes I have removable mud flaps and no my fender flares do not conform :-[. I should fix that sometime this summer. Another mod to work on.

 he was a jerk for leaving a note like that.

I felt like one for like two minutes...

I was taking the girlfriend to Banff for Valentines Day when I happened to pass a Jeep that I know very well. I made a bet with the girlfriend that Jeff would read the note and get mad. He would post up a pic and rant on the CJA about it that night and voila!

Thank-you for being so damn predictable Jeff.  HOOK...LINE...AND SINKER...

ps. you parked in a lot that said "1 hour parking only" tsk,tsk   ;D

i wasnt mad and wouldnt get mad .. if someone wrote that note and MENT it   there not worth my time cuz there to much of a pus to stand up in my face and tell me i did a hack job on my half cab

and  when i got home and showed the room mate the note i told her it had to be someone from the site . for some reaosn i just knew it

as for parking .. there 50 spots at a petro  i dont think they have that kind of business to worry about parking there longer then a hour

thanks for the note
